#3 Lopetegui will bring passing game to Madrid
Julen Lopetegui is a Spanish football manager who is not quite experienced in managing big clubs. Madrid fans criticised the club management when Zidane was appointed as their manager. Though Zidane was not experienced, he did wonders at the club guiding them to three consecutive Champions League titles which happened for the first time in the Champions League era.
Julen Lopetegui started his Madrid career with a loss, there were a number of positives from the game. Spanish managers are often considered as the most technical ones. Julen Lopetegui did a fantastic job with Spain but was sacked after a short amount of time due to some management issue. Lopetegui's Madrid will revolve around some of the best midfielders comprising of Isco, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos.
Madrid kept 79% possession of the ball in their first preseason game against Manchester United. Lopetegui was successful in implementing his style of playing a passing game. Madrid attempted 743 passes with 92% accuracy which helped them control the game.
Though Madrid lost the game, they will surely take some positives from the game and try to improve in the next match.
